Rear extension planning drawings in Vale of Leven

What do rear extension planning drawings cost in Vale of Leven?

As a guide, £1,000–£2,500 including VAT for a single-storey rear extension, or £2,000–£3,500 for a two-storey scheme. Planning and building warrant fees in Scotland are set nationally and by value of work; we confirm both before submitting. We put a fixed price in writing once the design is agreed, and explain any provisional sums such as foundations.

Do you need planning permission for a rear extension in Vale of Leven?

The planning route for a rear extension in Vale of Leven is set by Scotland's householder rules and your council.

Scottish Class 1B rights for extensions of more than one storey need a 10 metre gap to every boundary, which few gardens have. Expect a planning application as well as a building warrant for a double-storey rear extension.

Scottish councils aim to decide householder applications within two months; the building warrant runs alongside.

Classes 1A and 1B do not apply in conservation areas, and listed buildings need listed building consent. We check your house's planning history and any conservation area before drawing, so the route is clear before you spend on plans.

What are homes in Vale of Leven like to extend?

Post-war semis and terraces are common around Vale of Leven, and many have room for a single-storey rear extension within Class 1A limits.

How a rear extension in Vale of Leven comes together

1. Survey visit

   We visit free of charge, measure up, check access, drainage and neighbours' extensions, and note what you want the room to do.

2. Options and costs

   We draw layout options and price each one, so the budget shapes the design rather than surprising you later.

3. Approvals

   Permitted development check or planning application, then building warrant drawings and structural calculations, plus a written agreement with neighbours for any shared-wall work.

4. Fixed price and build

   A written price for the agreed design, a start date and a named contact through the build, ending with the accepted completion certificate.
